School Uniform
The children chose the colour and design of our school uniform and are proud of the family identity it gives them.
School uniform plays a valuable role in contributing to the ethos of the school and enables all children to feel a sense of belonging. It instils pride, supports positive behaviour and encourages unity with the school. Importantly, uniform can also protect children from social pressures to dress in a particular way. It also looks smart, something our children have told us is important to them.
Sweatshirts, hooded sweatshirts, cardigans, polo shirts and T-shirts all have the school emblem embroidered on them and are available to purchase from: My Clothing www.myclothing.com.
The range of items below gives you wider choices and you are free to purchase non-logo items of clothing, such as trousers, skirts, white polo shirts, from stockists of your own choice if you prefer a cheaper option. Similarly, we are happy for you to obtain jumpers or cardigans without the logo in the same burgundy colour as those with a logo on.

Book bags are available from the school office. You will be given your first book bag as a gift from the school. If your child requires any replacements, we respectfully ask you to purchase a new one.
Please help us by clearly labelling all your child’s clothes and other school items. It is very difficult to identify items that look the same. We are always very sad that bags of lost clothes are never claimed .

We recognise that the cost of uniform can be too expensive for some parents so we encourage them to let us know, as we may have a selection of second-hand items that have been donated. Alternatively, there are a number of websites who offer grants to support with purchasing uniform, for example:
